Company Description

Our Group Treasury consists of the following teams: Investor Relations, Captive Finance and Structured Finance.

AUTO1 Group is a leader in using ABS financing technology. In addition to our unique existing ABS programme for our used car inventory, we are building a large captive finance business which we refinance in the ABS market, including our debut public market transaction, FinanceHero 2024-1. As we build the best way to buy and sell cars online we will also build the best ABS and captive finance business in the European car space.

This is a great opportunity for a young professional in the securitisation space to move to the issuer side. While you will have a better work life balance, you will still have the excitement from being part in the growth and development of a key issuer in the European ABS space.

Our head quarter is in Berlin. We have some flexibility for remote working but you will be expected to be in Berlin at least for an initial on-boarding period and subsequently be able to meet with colleagues on a regular basis in Berlin or London.

What we offer:

• International teams
• Personal growth with the contribution of own ideas
• Employee benefit platform with countless discounts on your purchases
• Health offerings: vaccinations, occupational check ups, mental health program
• Purchase discount for your next car

Join us, building the best way to buy and sell cars!

• Investor & Lender Relations: Manage relationships with investors, banks, and rating agencies, ensuring transparent communication and engagement throughout the transaction lifecycle.
• Due Diligence & Documentation: Oversee due diligence processes, coordinate transaction documentation and ensure compliance with regulatory and investor requirements.
• Expansion & New Markets: Support the expansion of ABS programs into new jurisdictions, aligning transaction structures with country-specific regulations and investor preferences.
• Regulatory & Compliance Oversight: Monitor regulatory developments affecting ABS transactions, including ESMA Securitization Regulations, STS framework, and capital market requirements. Prior experience with Italian Law 130 structures would be a plus.
• Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with treasury, finance, risk, legal, and IT teams to support funding initiatives and ensure seamless operational execution of structured finance programs.
• Market Monitoring & Strategy Development: Keep abreast of market trends, investor demand, and competitive benchmarks to refine Auto1 Group’s structured finance strategy.

Qualifications

• Educational Background: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Finance, Economics, Business, or a related field.
• Work Experience: Minimum of 5-7 years of experience in structured finance, securitization, or ABS transaction management, preferably within an investment bank, asset-backed lender, or financial services company.
• Technical Expertise: Strong understanding of ABS structuring, credit risk assessment, and transaction documentation. Familiarity with rating methodologies and securitization cash flow modeling is a plus.
• Regulatory Knowledge: Comprehensive understanding of European ABS regulations, STS framework, and securitization market dynamics.
• Stakeholder Management: Proven experience in managing external and internal stakeholders, including investors, banks, and legal advisors, in high-stakes transactions.
• Analytical & Problem-Solving Skills: Ability to analyze large datasets, assess credit performance, and optimize ABS structures.
